The history of human civilization parallels the history of its cities. From Athens under the rule of Pericles to the Jerusalem that Jesus knew, the great cities of the past defined the eras in which they were built and shaped the minds of countless generations. These places embodied the knowledge and beliefs of entire societies within their walls - and yet due to the vagaries of history, these worlds are lost to us, buried beneath the ruins of time and memory. Following a team of historical detectives, The History Channel® recreates these vanished places in stunning detail, piecing together ancient clues using evidence from recent excavations, scientific studies, and historical documents to reconstruct these long-dormant locales. As the clues are gathered, the award-winning graphics team rebuilds each city wall by wall. The result is a stunning collection of historically accurate and beautiful visions of cities once long lost.
